dolorosa_12Well, I'm nearly finished my registration work, but it's killing me (oh, Lebor Gabála, ours is an abusive relationship), so I've been taking lots of time off and reading interesting stuff online. You know the drill, it's a linkpost.
The wonderful![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
stefeny has started up a blog about her experiences rereading Enid Blyton books. It's very funny. I was one of those people who grew up with Blyton, missed all the racism and sexism and classism and plain bad writing, and then reread the books years later in horror. (I was reading them aloud to a girl I was babysitting, and found myself changing the writing whenever Blyton said something appallingly awful.) Anyway, I highly recommend this blog.
I really appreciated this post byhighandrandom about moral ambiguity, for I, too, am a fan of morally ambiguous characters.
I love this post on True/Slant about the whole kerfuffle with the Downfall parody videos being taken off Youtube.
thelxiepia pointed me in the direction of this wonderful recap of Supernatural episode 5.19 by tahirire and blacklid. A must-read for all SPN fans.
If everyone on Twitter were to read the same book over summer, it would be...American Gods. *flails*

westerfeld_blog proves yet again why I love him so.
Here's a great article from The Sydney Morning Herald about tampon ads. I found myself nodding along with pretty much everything the writer said.
